Oekaki/Java problems & solutions

[Tea_Leaf]

Hi!

I'm having problems with Oekaki itself (aside from tablet-related complications. >.>).

I haven't used Oekaki in a while, due to my tablet always glitching. It's been the first time I've used it in about two months. After working for a while on a drawing, I went to save it, and found that I couldn't click "Save Oekaki" at all!

I hovered my mouse over 'File,' and it led to the dropdown to save. However, when I clicked on it, the option didn't get highlighted in blue, nor did it do anything whatsoever.

I've installed JTablet, which warned me that it may crash. After uninstalling it, Oekaki still wouldn't save.

Has anyone had this problem before?

Ok. so I had to uninstall Java and I re installed it today, when I try to go to the Oekaki it says I don't have Java when I do, its in my control panel etc.. And I read the thing on the front page which is a solution and it didn't work...? Is there anything else I can do?

i am only seeing a grey screen if i want to draw. i am using chrome and windows 8. when i installed java everything was working when i did the test, but when i clicked on new drawing and standard size the only thing i saw was a grey screen. so here is what i tried: i removed java and and reinstalled it a couple times, i restarted my browser, i tried other browsers, i cleared the Java cache, i enabled the Java plug-in in the browser and i checked my anti virus. but i am still seeing a grey screen. and i did other tests but they olso had a grey screen. what can i do?

I don't know where to post this but: an image in oekaki I made awhile back is no longer working? I no longer have a computer so I can't edit it and mess around with it to see what is wrong. Who do I contact about this?

Alright, so my sister and I share this tablet, I just installed JTablet several times, and I updated my Java as well, but the pressure sensitivity for the oekaki still won't work.
It says it's an unassigned extension, and when I use the applet on the JTablet website, it says the error: "could not initialize tablet" It also says the plug-in couldn't be loaded.

Does the pen pressure work in other programs? If not, you may want to update your drivers first.

I keep getting the same screen saying:
Couldn't start because Java ran out of memory!

Read the first page.

Can you try to clear your cache or possible reinstall Java?

Borrow a friend's computer, go to edit and drawing and save it again, that should show it again.

To everyone else:
I do not have answers right now. I have not come across any of your issues recently for me to offer you a solution right now.
If nothing seems to work, please uninstall Java using JavaRa (a specially designed Java tool that completely removes all traces), and then reinstall Java. This is the best way to get a clean install and to avoid any issues. Here's the JavaRa link:

Furthermore, I do not appreciate anyone PMing me about these issues when you also posted on the thread. It's quite rude. I am only one person and I have other things to do besides CS. It would be very kind if you could no longer PM me about issues. Post them on the thread or send in a help ticket if you must.

Someone might have already said this, but if your Oekaki is frozen or not responding and you have JTablet on a computer running Mavericks, in order to get the Oekaki to work again you will have to uninstall JTablet. You won't have pen pressure, and I currently don't know any other way to get the pen pressure.

My computer , a Mac , won't work on Oekaki.
I tried using Safari , since chrome can't support the newest Java
And this happened

When I leave , it asks if I want to save my drawing , when there is nothing to save.
It just stays that green screen.
My Java is enabled in the settings , but it doesn't look like it is.
Any solutions?



sadly simon's and my cases were not the same , but ty for your input though simon

I have a mac and use safari as well.

I get this screen but you have to wait a little while before you can begin to draw.

maybe even up to a minute or two.

try again but wait a bit longer.

if that doesn't work then I'm not sure what is wrong.

I hope this helps.

so oekaki keeps saying that i need to update my java and so i do so but then i go back to oekaki and it stills says i have to update?

i have tried resetting safari, restarting my computer, and messing with security on java

one thing ive noticed is that it doesnt do the thingy where you have to click run….

As it said this and I really don't know what to do.
I just wanted to ask does it mean I can use oekaki ever again?
Im just scared >0<

As of April 8, 2014 Microsoft stopped supporting Windows XP and therefore it is no longer a supported platform. XP users will be unable to install Java 8. Windows users must upgrade to Windows Vista or later to install Java 8.
